2004 SPORTSMAN RULES

Note: All additions to the rulebook are noted herein by Italicized red text. Every competitor must make himself/herself aware of and familiar with not only the technical rules in this chapter, but also the rules pertaining to safety and officiating in chapter one. By registering as an owner or driver you agree to be knowledgeable and bound by the contents found herein. 4.0) GENERAL DIVISION DESCRIPTION The Sportsman division is designed to promote greater interest in stock car racing and to allow new and inexperienced drivers and car owners to compete in their class on a weekly basis. Driver eligibility is the decision of the track officials At any time, amendments or clarifications will be made to the rules. You will be notified and given ample time to make these adjustments or ask questions. The Waterford Speedbowl is not responsible for typographical errors. 4.1) ILLEGAL ITEMS Absolutely no removal of, alteration of, covering of casting numbers, part numbers, manufacturer names, logos, insignias, etc. from any item on the race car. To do so makes the part in question illegal and will be treated as such. If you come up with a rare part that we cannot find listed for passenger car use, the burden of proof is on you. At anytime you may be asked to remove a head, manifold, or even the entire engine for inspection purposes. Failure to comply will result in the same penalty as if the parts were illegal. As far as these rules are concerned there is no such thing as a “gray” area in the rules. Every rule has a specific intention. If you are not sure of that intention then ask before you get caught or waste time and money.
